Hybrid & Remote Legislature Support
Two permanent staff will support legislative technology needs for the evolving remote and hybrid work environment, legislative session, interim hearings and remote testimony. (General Fund - State)

A Gartner staffing and workforce analysis concluded legislative IT staffing is in the 25th percentile of peer groups while maintaining much higher levels of customization and personalization. This adjustment will match average staffing levels of peer groups and address needs in cybersecurity and data sharing agreements, IT license and contracts management, application development, and audio/video.

Legislative Session Support
Eleven temporary session staff are needed every session to support technology needs such as hosting remote hearings, assisting with custom lawmaking applications, and answering support calls. (General Fund - State)
